“This effect of cocaine was inhibited by pretreatment with α-methyl-p-tyrosine, haloperidol, and physostigmine , but not with FLA-63, phenoxybenzamine and tetrabenazine.”
“Pretreatment with cocaine at ineffective doses as well as at an effective one potentiated the effects of an ineffective as well as of an effective dose of physostigmine in C57 mice, while it antagonized the effects of the inhibitor of cholinesterase enzymes on memory consolidation in DBA mice.”
“In 4 of 11 cats, the physostigmine pretreatment produced a significant decrease in mean arterial blood pressure followed by lethal cardiorespiratory arrest when cocaine was administered.”
